Genesis 31:25 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 31:25

Then Laban overtook Jacob
He was come to the mount the overnight, but now in the morning he came nearer to him, so as to hold a conversation with him: now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount, and Laban with his
brethren pitched in the mount of Gilead;
both on the same mount; one perhaps at the bottom, and the other at the top; or one on one hill of it, and the other on another, or right over against one another.

26 Laban said to Jacob, "What have you done? You cheated me and took my daughters as if you had captured them in a war.

27 Why did you run away secretly and trick me? Why didn't you tell me? Then I could have sent you away with joy and singing and with the music of tambourines and harps.
